140g caster sugar
20g honey
180g almonds
25g softened butter
2 eggs
7g baking powder

Add the flour and baking powder and then the whole almonds.
Put the dough in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, then divide it into three equal parts and form them into rolls of about 3cm in diameter. Place them on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper, spacing them out (they will swell up during baking).
Bake in the preheated oven at 180°C for 25 minutes.
When they come out of the oven, cut them immediately into slices of 1 to 1.5 cm wide and place them on a baking sheet.
Bake for another 10 minutes, then place on a rack to cool and enjoy!
